Well you can also create the NewYorker Hotel :D
And if you want more:

Crystler Building.
WTC 5. <<<It still Stands!>>>
Spiderman's home :p
KingKong on the Empire State building
A Taxi. for random scenery.
Central Park.
Central Museum <<<From Night at The Museum>>> (you know what i'm talking about)

If you can make this all it would be great!
Now we just need the "Baron" with Guns on it :) <<<For Use With KingKong>>>

If it's the movie "La Nuit au Musée" with Ben Stiller, I watched it at the cinema.

Well, here is a screenshot of the wip :

Still need to respect the scales however.

Very nice!

Just a reminder to send your models into http://scenemodels.flightgear.org/ once you are done with them!

FYI, the map pointed out by JonS does not work in IE. For now: use another browser instead ;)

FYI, that's the American Museum of Natural History. It's located in Central Park West near 77th St. There are several other distinctively-architected museums on the other side of the park (5th Ave). And you have to include the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel (central park south) and the Public Library.

Yeah! It's because the current mapfile of Manhattan really lacks precision! Therefore, even if buildings are on the river, exact positions must be respected.
As you can see here : http://mapserver.flightgear.org/map/?lon=-4.41840585539649&lat=48.4484146908477&zoom=11&layers=0B000000FTTFFFFFTFT, the right side is much more detailed than the left one.
